Ruby's Birthday, Goodbye Tooth, And A Fun Surprise!!!

July is behind us!  Four birthday celebrations in sixteen days!  Three swim meets, lots of swim lessons, and a visit from our special little friend from Arizona, Nadi!  It was a great month!

Now we shift in to August.  It feels like school is around the corner as I type.  The temperatures have dropped.  It's a gorgeous morning here in northern, MN.  The windows are open, and I can hear the loons talking to each other on the lake.  One of my favorite sounds!  I have to close out July with a few photos from Ruby's sweet birthday lunch at the American Girl store.  It was a fun way to celebrate our last July birthday....

An un-planned bonus on Ruby's 6th birthday..  She has been waiting for her second tooth to fall out for weeks...  Jeff came to the AG store to surprise her..  When she saw him, she showed him her little stubborn tooth hanging by a thread..  He grabbed a kleenex and pulled it out right in the store!!!!  She was so excited...  FYI - The tooth fairy pays double for birthday teeth!!

When we walked out of the AG store,  look who was standing there!  They were excited to rush up and get their picture taken!

Lastly, since the summer began, Sienna and Ruby have asked if they could get their ears pierced.  We told them would consider it... We never promised!  The day before Ruby's birthday she asked if she could get her ears pierced..  I thought this was a well deserved surprise after the great summer they have had..  So after Ruby's birthday lunch I told them we had a surprise..  We walked over to "Claire's.."  I said, guess what?..  You are getting your ear's pierced today!!!  The look on their faces was priceless!!!  A combination of terrified and excited!!!!  It was over quickly, and they both did great!!!!  They look so pretty with their new sparkly flowers!!!!  Ruby's already counting down the six weeks to changing them!

We had a great visit with Nadi.  I have some sweet pictures of these special best friends in my next post!  That wraps up our busy July!!
